cannot find a lot of apps in market

I don't know for sure if this will work in your situation, but it might be worth a try.

Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Market

Clear cache and force stop then

Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Google Services Framework

Clear Data and force stop

Try the Market again.

Hope it works for you!

Maybe you don't have the normal Android Market and you just have Samsung Android Market. If it's the case you need to do the following:

1- Go to key pad and enter *#06# it will show you the device IMEI number
2- Write IMEI number on a piece of paper and keep it aside.
3- Enter *#272* IMEI number #
4- Options will appear on the screen, choose the option XSG and press INSTALL.
5- Your device will restart and "Market" will appear on the screen and in the Applications.

This will enable your Android Market would be able to see the complete Apps that are compatible with your device.

Good luck!

I live in Egypt too and "Angry Birds" is available on the Market search. I have "Angry Birds Rio" installed but other releases are available upon search. Have you checked the Android Market settings? The filtering settings, maybe it's the reason you can't find certain Apps? I'm new to Android myself so I don't really know much. Good luck!
